Models from diverse application areas such as computer vision, coding theory, cryptographic protocols, biology and reliability analysis can be written as probabilistic programs. Probabilistic inference is the problem of computing an explicit representation of the probability distribution implicitly specified by a probabilistic program. Depending on the application, the desired output from inference may vary-we may want to estimate the expected value of some function f with respect to the distribution, or the mode of the distribution, or simply a set of samples drawn from the distribution. In this paper, we describe connections this research area called \\Probabilistic Programming" has with programming languages and software engineering, and this includes language design, and the static and dynamic analysis of programs. We survey current state of the art and speculate on promising directions for future research."}],"title":"Probabilistic programming","department":[{"_id":"ToHe"}],"publication":"Proceedings of the on Future of Software Engineering","status":"public","project":[{"name":"Quantitative Reactive Modeling","call_identifier":"FP7","grant_number":"267989","_id":"25EE3708-B435-11E9-9278-68D0E5697425"},{"call_identifier":"FWF","name":"Rigorous Systems Engineering","grant_number":"S 11407_N23","_id":"25832EC2-B435-11E9-9278-68D0E5697425"}],"doi":"10.1145/2593882.2593900","oa_version":"Published Version","conference":{"location":"Hyderabad, India","end_date":"2014-06-07","start_date":"2014-05-31","name":"FOSE: Future of Software Engineering"},"day":"31","scopus_import":1,"publist_id":"5816","article_processing_charge":"No","date_published":"2014-05-31T00:00:00Z","quality_controlled":"1","type":"conference","oa":1,"date_updated":"2021-01-12T06:50:22Z","date_created":"2018-12-11T11:51:45Z","author":[{"last_name":"Gordon","first_name":"Andrew","full_name":"Gordon, Andrew"},{"last_name":"Henzinger","orcid":"0000−0002−2985−7724","full_name":"Henzinger, Thomas A","first_name":"Thomas A","id":"40876CD8-F248-11E8-B48F-1D18A9856A87"},{"last_name":"Nori","full_name":"Nori, Aditya","first_name":"Aditya"},{"first_name":"Sriram","full_name":"Rajamani, Sriram","last_name":"Rajamani"}]}
